Imminent Star Wars: Battlefront DLC The Battle of Jakku will include the new 40 player Turning Point mode, DICE has confirmed.
DICE explains that Turning Point portrays the efforts of the Rebel Alliance to defeat the Empire following the Battle of Endor.
“At the edge of the map, the Empire has constructed a make-shift base as well as smaller fortifications strewn across the landscape,” explains Lead Level Designer Dennis Brännvall explains. “Following an emergency landing, the Rebels need to locate the enemy bases to attack and take control of them all.”
The Rules of Turning Point:
Rebels need to locate and capture one of three control points in Imperial control. The clock is ticking, but if the Rebel team succeeds with a capture additional time will be added and new control points will be available for capture. Moving through these increasingly challenging checkpoints, the ultimate goal is the Empire’s base where the final stand will take place.
Turning Point will feature airspeeders and AT-STs. In this mode the AT-ST is said to be a slightly more defensive vehicle. Airspeeders will, however, be on the offence, offering supporting fire to Rebel team mates.
The Battle of Jakku DLC will launch free on December 1 to those who pre-ordered Battlefront, and a week later to all other players.
